Is A Small Purpura Spot On The Lower Lip Corner Due To Clopidogrel?
I think I have a small spot of purpura on the corner of my lower lip. I take clopidogrel. It says that could be a side affect. Had my yearly physical today and Nurse PA looked at it and said it looked like it might be a bruised spot possibly done in my sleep. I sleep with a CPAP and use a full face mask. Never had this happen before and I have not bumped my lip. Came up Saturday and may go away on it s own. PA did not recommend any action. Going back in two weeks for them to go over the results of my bloodwork.
Clopidogrel can caue bleeidimh tendencies and the purple spot can be due to clopidogrel.Nothing much to worry and generally it will settle by itself.If the purple spot persists for long, you can consult a physician and get evaluated.
